Rumpelstilz, a band from Interlaken near the Swiss Alps, were the first to publish a Rock song with lyrics in Swiss dialect. Their single "Warehuus Blues" from 1973 was influenced by Bob Dylan and a true milestone in Swiss Rock history.

The second Sauterelles album „View To Heaven“ was a smash hit. But success came (too) late. The summer of 1968 was the summer of the „Swiss Beatles", though later in the year, the original group disbanded.
